Best early Prime Day Apple deals: MacBooks, iPads, AirPods

Amazon Prime Day has expanded into a four-day event running from June 23 to June 26, with discounts across many categories — including coveted Apple products. I've rounded up early deals on AirPods, MacBooks, iPads and more, and I will be checking prices before and throughout Prime Day to spot when they drop.

Historically there have been meaningful discounts on Apple products during these events, so you can save a good chunk of money; I’ll point out the noteworthy bargains and the ones to pass on. This is Apple’s most capable iPad — fast enough to handle your laptop’s workload on a lighter, more portable device.

"The biggest benefit to using the iPad Pro like a laptop is that you also get iPad-exclusive perks, such as a touchscreen (which hasn't been introduced on MacBooks yet) and the ability to use a stylus, like the Apple Pencil Pro. In this way, the iPad is an even better work machine than Apple's laptops," Maria Diaz writes in her review of the iPad Pro.
